Pnt- F. W. Eilera Gives Their Side of
tlie Controversy.
Bandmaster Eilers of the Se-
cond Regiment band made the
following statement to sBaxner
reporter Tuesday morning in re-
ference to the controversy with
the fire department:
"The bid by the band to fur-
nish music for the Maifest was
first submitted at $200. Messrs.
J, H. Simon and T. A. Low, Jr.,
called on the band and aaked
that the bid be reduced to S175.
They stated that the full band in
the day time and ten men at
night would meet the require-
ments, and this contract was
made for a consideration of $175.
"As to the two selections at
old fiddlers' contest: The chief
came to me after the band had
been dismissed for the evening
and said 'I would like to have
the band furnish two selections
for the old fiddlers' contest. 'I
told him 1 was sorry the band
had been dismissed, and that if
he had come earlier 1 would have
been only too glad to play. To
this he replied, 'There are four
or five of your band boys, now.'
1 told him those were not enough
to play, and that I didn't have
time to see them all and get them
together for the night. The
chief said, 'All right, I'll see
about it," and walked away. 1
was there at 8:30 with ten men
ready to play; but no one asked
me to do bo.
"On Saturday afternoon the
boys asked me for money for
playing. I felt that they had
earned it, and thought they were
entitled to it. I called on the
chairman of the musio committee
with whom the contract was
made and he attested the bill and
told me to go to the secretary
and get an order for the money, I
gave the secretary a receipt in
full in the name of the band for
the order. The secretary told
me 1 had better see the chief and
get the order attested by him. I
told the chief that I would like to
hiye the order attested by him,
as the boys needed and wanted
the money. He declined to do
so, saying he had a complaint to
make against the band. I told
him the contract had been filled
and that the band was entitled to
the money. From there I went
to Messrs. Qiddings A Qiddings
and asked them to advance the
money to pay off the band boys.
I told him that I would be re-
sponsible for the money and that
the fire department didn't want
t) settle the claim until Monday.
After I secured the money,
some one told the bank not to
pay it. Mr. Giddings came to me
and said I ought to have told him
there was a dispute in the matter
1 offered him the money back,
but he left it with the treasurer
of the band. I then told the boys
that If we bad gotten the money
in the wrong way, that we had
better give it back. I went to
•ee Dr. R. E. Luhn, and told him
that 1 was going to take it back.
He told me to keep the money
and he telephoned the bank that
he would be responsible for the
natter. Several business men
told me that if we wanted the or*
der cashed that they would make
it up for us.
"The band is ready at all times
to help the fire department, bu
sometimes it is impossible toge
the members together."

the Maifest held at Brenham oh
May 24 and 25 prizes were of-
fered for the most beaujtiful trap
in the procession. The first prize
was very properly awarded to
Miss Alvina Knittel, of Burton,
and Miss Thornhill, of Brenham,
two of Washington county's most
highly accomplished and charm-
ing daughters. Miss Alvina's
colors were pale blue and Miss
Thornhill's pink. Their com-
panions were respectively Mr.
Eversberg and Mr. Harrison,
both of Brenham. Mbs Alvina's
Burton friends feel very proud
indeed of her success. The de-
cision of the judges was compli-
mented by every one as being
correct, as it was the unanimous
opinion that it could not be oth-
erwise.

Modesty is the crowning virtue of American women. It trait
that all mankind admires. A modest woman is the most pleasing ot
created things. Because of this becoming virtue thousands of women
prefer to suffer untold miseries rather than confide their troubles to a
physician, and to even think of submitting to an examination is rev t-
ing. They can't get their own consent to an operation. Wine ot
permits sensitive women to retain their modesty. With it they can ciure
" female troubles" in the quiet of their own rooms. If specialtreatment
is required they can write to the Advisory Department of the
nooga Medicine Co., and their letters will be promptly answered by
women trained in the cure of
womanly weaknesses and irregu-
larities. There should be no hesita-
tion. Delayed treatment means a
chronic condition. The longer
postponed the harder to cure.
